I have a context menu so that when you right click on the containers, you can remove it from the canvas container. When I go to remove a child, I get an error, below. Code: private function menuSelectHandler(event:ContextMenuEvent):void { var remChild:Number; var target:String = event.mouseTarget.toString(); trace (target); if (target.match("UIComponent") == null && target.match("resizeBar") == null) { trace (" True 1"); trace (" "+event.mouseTarget); remChild = cal0Day.getChildIndex(event.mouseTarget); } else { trace (" True 2"); trace (" "+event.mouseTarget.parent); remChild = myCanvas.getChildIndex(event.mouseTarget.parent); } trace (remChild); trace (myCanvas.getChildAt(remChild)); myCanvas.removeChildAt(remChild); myAC.removeChildAt(remChild); updateLayout(); } TestApp0.canvasShell.myCanvas.myContainer592 True 1 TestApp0.canvasShell.myCanvas.myContainer592 12 TestApp0.canvasShell.myCanvas.myContainer592 Then I get the following error: ArgumentError: Error #2025: The supplied DisplayObject must be a child of the caller. at flash.display::DisplayObjectContainer/getChildIndex() How do I do this?
